Hire Right, Higher Profits - The Executive's Guide to Building a World-Class Sales Force (Paperback)

Despite these issues, executives continue to try to "hire great salespeople." That three-word expression is exactly what Hire Right, Higher Profits is all about. Sales management strategist, Lee Salz begins the book by challenging readers with the $25,000 Revenue Test which most executives fail. Then, he hits readers between the eyes with the statement "there are no great salespeople" and offers proof of it He also cautions those executives - who view the competition as their primary sales talent source - of its risks.

But Salz doesn't stop there He challenges executives to shift their perspective from hiring salespeople to investing in revenue. Each salesperson represents a revenue investment made by the company with the core objective of receiving a fast, high return on it - no different than when companies invest in sales strategies, tactics, and ideas to grow revenue.
